First of all I want to greet you all a Merry Christmas! I hope you are having fun in this special day.

My family is not big on celebrations but we always make sure to be together. After all it’s the company that’s important, right? But there’s a lot of food though and I am very happy about that. I want a white Christmas and make snow angels but unfortunately it doesn’t snow in this part of the world. Sigh. I’m just going to stuff my face with cookies. Haha! Nothing beats holiday cookies.

It’s the classic one-night stand: Beach wedding, bridesmaid, groom’s friend. When Andrea and Damon meet, sparks fly, and they give in to the attraction. Sounds simple, but Andrea’s still getting over someone, and Damon thought he’d be hooking up with another person that night. It could still be simple, really, if they chalk it up to a weekend tryst and move on.

But one night becomes lunch the week after, and then dinner the next weekend…and before they know it, Andrea and Damon are still together, dealing with the feelings they know they might still have for other people. How hard can it be to get exactly what you want? How do you even know what it is?

What better way to find love than in a wedding? Andrea and Damon was in Andrea’s sister’s wedding having their own agendas. Andrea was there to support her sister, Damon was there for another woman. But everything changes for him when he met Andrea. They had a one-night stand and one-night stands have one simple rule: never see the other person the morning after, or ever. Continue reading →

Reading isn’t all butterflies and rainbows. We don’t just sit around and sip tea while we bury our noses in a great book (although we sure love doing that), we have struggles too! Today I’m going to give you the five common struggles of a bookworm everyone can relate to.

Cooper Moore never saw Maggie Williams coming. She was just his best friend’s little sister, the curly-haired, freckle-faced girl from Mississippi who was absolutely off limits. And he never thought about her any other way — not until he saw her that night, broken and brave. From that moment on, he knew he’d do whatever it took to protect her, even if it meant he had to stay away.

Maggie never expected to find her fiancé banging her maid of honor an hour before she was set to walk down the aisle, but life’s funny that way. The only option to save her sanity is to get the hell out of Jackson and move to New York where her brother lives. The only downside: Cooper is there too. And she just doesn’t know if she can stay away from him — the filthy rich, dead sexy playboy who’s allergic to commitment.

The second Maggie sees him again, she realizes he’ll be impossible to resist. Luckily, commitment is the last thing on her mind, and Cooper is the perfect escape. As long as she can keep her heart in check, everything will be just fine. Because she can never have feelings for him. Or at least that’s what she’ll keep telling herself.

Chaser is a standalone romantic comedy and book 2 of the Bad Habits series.

I am fangirling so hard and trying my best not to type an exclamation point after every word I type.

Avid reader and art student Steph is participating in a monthly blog challenge to Live Like Fiction, and this was the task for October. When Grayson, former co-captain of her university rugby team, walks into her class, she knows it’s meant to be – she has to go out with this guy. Even if she’s never been attracted to big, hunky, athletic types. With Grayson’s “player” reputation off the field, Steph thinks he’ll be good for one date that’ll be worth blogging about, and that’s it.

But you know how it goes: Soon, it becomes more than just one date – and Steph and Grayson are caught up in “living like fiction.” How long can they keep playing their roles before reality steps in?

I was so excited to get an advance copy of Learning To Fall, and for a good reason. It’s not a secret that I’m a huge fan of Mina V. Esguerra. And I was really intrigued with the book because it was a love story about a rugby player named Grayson and a book blogger named Steph. I don’t know much about rugby, but Steph is practically a sister from another mother.
